Chap. XLIV—A. D. 1603.] ELIZABETH. 491 any undue ascendant over her. In her family, in her court, in her kingdom, she remained equally mistress: the force of the tender passions was great over her, but the force of her mind was still superior; and the combat which her victorv visibly cost her, serves only to display the firmness of her resolution, and the loftiness of her ambitious sentiments. The fame of this princess, though it has surmounted the prejudices both of faction and bigotry, yet lies stdl exposed to another prejudice, which is more durable be cause more natural, and which, according to the different views in which we survey her, is capable either of exalting beyond measure, or diminishing the lustre of her character. This prejudice is founded on the consideration of her sex. When we contemplate her as a woman, we are apt to be struck with the highest admiration of her great qualities and extensive capacity; but we are also apt to require some more softness of disposition, some greater lenity of temper, some of those amiable weaknesses by which her sex is distinguished. But the true method of estimating her merit, is to lay aside all these considerations, and consider her merely as a rational being placed in authority, and intrusted with'the government of mankind. We may find it difficult to reconcile our fancy to her as a wife or a mistress; but her qualities as a sovereign, though with some considerable exceptions, are the object of un disputed applause and approbation. THE HISTORY OF GREAT BRITAIN. JAMES 1. CHAP. XLV. il Introduction—James's first transactions—State of Europe—Rosni’s ne- fociations—Raleigh’s conspiracy—Hampton Court conference—A par- iament—Peace with Spain. a D 1603 The crown England was never trans- ‘ ‘ mitted from father to son with greater tran- jp quillity than it passed from the family of Tudor to that of i2 Stuart. During the whole reign of Elizabeth, the eyes of m men had been employed in search of her successor; and [w when old age made the prospect of her death more imme ¬ diate, there appeared none but the King of Scots, who oo could advance any just claim or pretension to the throne. •H He was great-grandson of Margaret, elder daughter of >H Henry VIE; and, on the failure of the male line, his hereditary right remained unquestionable. If the religion of Mary, Queen of Scots, and the other prejudices con- £it - tracted against her, had formed any considerable obstacle ot to her succession ; these objections, being entirely per sonal, had no place with regard to her son. Men also loo considered, that though the title, derived from blood, had iad been frequently violated since the Norman conquest, such nil licences had proceeded more from force or intrigue, than [oil from any deliberate maxims of government. The lineal [iad • heir had still in the end prevailed ; and both his exclusion 3HB . and restoration had been commonly attended with such noo convulsions as were sufficient to warn all prudent men joa not lightly to give way to such irregularities. If the will Io of Henry VIII. authorized by act of parliament, had iosl tacitly excluded the Scottish line, the tyranny and caprices t io of that monarch had been so signal, that a settlement of gidt this nature, unsupported by any just reason, had no Ijue authority with the people. Queen Elizabeth too, with her livb dying breath, had recognised the undoubted title of her said • kinsman James; and the whole nation seemed to dispose nodi themselves with joy and pleasure for his reception. odT Though bom and educated amidst a foreign and hostile joaq people, men hoped, from his character of moderation and a Rennet, p. 662. wisdom, that he would embrace the maxims of an English monarch; and the prudent foresaw greater advantages re sulting from a union with Scotland, than disadvantages from submitting to a prince of that nation. The alacritv with which the English looked towards the successor had appeared so evident to Elizabeth, that, concurring with other causes, it affected her with the deepest melancholy; and that wise princess, whose penetration and experience had given her the greatest insight into human affairs, had not yet sufficiently weighed the ingratitude of courtiers and levity of the people. As victory abroad, and tranquillity at home, had attended this princess, she left the nation in such flourishing cir cumstances, that her successor possessed every advantage, except that of comparison with her illustrious name, when he mounted the throne of England. The king s journey from Edinburgh to London tionsofthis immediately afforded to the inquisitive some re,gn - circumstances of comparison, which even the natural par tiality in favour of their new sovereign could not interpret to his advantage. As he passed along, all ranks of men flocked about him from every quarter, allured by interest or curiosity. Great were the rejoicings, and loud and hearty the acclamations which resounded from all sides; and every one could remember how the affability and popular manners of their queen displayed themselves amidst such concourse and exultation of her subjects. But James, though sociable and familiar with his friends and courtiers, hated the bustle of a mixed multitude; and though far from disliking flattery, yet was he still fonder of tranquillity and ease. He issued therefore a proclama tion, forbidding this resort of people, on pretence of the scarcitv of provisions, and other inconveniences, which, he said, would necessarily attend it. a He w r as not, however, insensible to the great flow of affection which appeared in his hew subjects; and being himself of an affectionate temper, he seems to have been in haste to make them some return of kindness and good offices. To this motive, probably, we are to ascribe that
